@Jonathan_K_Cook We are slowly being brainwashed by our media and politicians

@Johnpatrick500 Why is Israel in the European league?

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@Heccles94 No

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@pamelafitz4HW Wear the white poppy for peace.

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@LittleHardman Yes. 76!

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

710 Palestinian newborn babies have been killed by Israeli forces during the ongoing war in Gaza.

No parent should have to go through the agony and heartbreak of losing their child.

We simply cannot accept the violence that Palestinian children continue to face as normal.

Self-defence.

@Jonathan_K_Cook The BBC reinforcing current thinking… some lives are more valuable than others. Now where did we hear that before?

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@hasoonassi No many people want to see a free Palestine after nearly 80 years of bloodshed.

@larry_turner …and where are all the people coming from? How many are professionally trained? Unlikely to happen I suggest.

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

This is an utterly shocking account from journalist Sarah Wilkinson of her recent violent arrest by 16 counter-terrorism police, several masked, at 7.30am.

They smashed up, or stole, many of her belongings; emptied an urn of her mother's remains over the floor; have denied her the right to touch any electronic device, even a phone, though she has a potentially life-threatening medical condition; stolen her passport, which she needs to produce or it will lead to a bail infraction and possibly a five-year jail term; and much else besides.

She has, of course, been stripped of the right to do journalism. All of this under Section 12 of the draconian Terrorism Act.

This is clearly intended as a campaign of terror, meant to intimidate others from speaking up about Israel's genocide in Gaza.

We are being reminded that you don't need to be a Julian Assange to be targeted and have your life turned upside down. We are being reminded that ultimately the UK is a police state – and that our freedoms are a gift from those who rule over us.

🚨BREAKING: 179 health workers gathered outside St Thomas’ Hospital to demand the release of the 179 Palestinian health workers held in secret detention by Israeli forces.

These brave health workers were taken by Israeli forces while risking their lives to provide medical care.

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@RichardBurden27 Regrettably the BBC continues to use the label ‘counter terrorism’ on these activities.

@xs_styl I’m surprised at The Times. 😕

@LeighRobinson79 @JohnEdwards33 Likely too busy securing his ministerial place with Starmer?

[Kate Clayton @kkatepst]

@AlexAitken_ @larry_turner I’m not easily persuaded to vote for a parachuted in unknown to our constituency. I’m so fed up by the lack of democracy and being told how to think by people I don’t trust in Labour, nationally and locally.
